Help Sophia raise money

As someone who wouldn’t normally call herself a runner, but is a lifelong animal lover, I decided to challenge myself by running the longest distance I ever have. I knew the only way I’d stay consistent, motivated, and truly enjoy the process was by dedicating it to a cause that means so much to me. That’s why I’m running for Sunny Paws, an amazing rescue that helps abandoned and mistreated dogs. I’ve always had a passion for “adopt, don’t shop,” and currently have three rescue cats who bring so much love into my life. My family and I also recently lost our beloved German Shepherd, and I’m running this race in his memory. This journey is about more than just the finish line—it’s about honoring the animals who’ve made an impact on my life and supporting those still waiting for a second chance.
